Try to smile, happyface- even if it hurts. One day at a time; that's all we are given. Hang in there darling, the world is praying for you both.

Thank you, your poem made me weep,but the words remind me of how unselfish I have to be at times.We are still going out in the car, but I know Rod may get worse, but I'm taking it day by day. Prayers for Rods brother Roy he might have heart issues, they have both been under stress with their mother. She's a night made with her sons. I hope God understand my prayers and I'm not like a big child.

Some of my best prayers were sobbing. God understands.

And, you are a big child, one of the benefits of being God's daughter. We get to go to Daddy. That's a good thing.

Thank you all for your lovely messages. Yes I'm my own worse enemy. I have a trouble tooth and I'm hoping it can be fixed. Yes you must all be sick of me. I'm quite happy apart from a fractured tooth and sore gum. Lol I'm hoping that I get it seen to. God bless you all for really being there. Xx

In December of that year, A tooth split into four. Worse yet, the next day there were only two pieces left. (I do NOT want to know what happened to the rest. :eek:) Got it fixed (removed) the following February.

Best advice, and that which is hardest to do, is to quit checking it out with your tongue. All that does is cut your tongue (often.)

There was a lot that happened that I should have dealt with back then, but didn't have the time to work on. It worked out. God is good.

Hi, I am sounding ridiculously selfish especially when Rod isn't well today. He's having big issues with going to the toilet for bowels. We went to docs and his bottom is very sore. I hate all this. Part of the tooth broke away today leaving some stuck in the gum, yes it's sore but nothing like Rods going through. Yes it's something else when you know someone close is poorly.

Stuck in gum is good for now. May rot more later, but the gum will grow around it, so no more poking it with your teeth then.

Hi Lynn, I did have a very swollen face and it killed. I'm on antibiotics now and the swelling gone down, I looked like I'd been beaten up. Rods been really unwell its took several sachets of laxative and enema in the bottom and he finally went on toilet. I'm there for him 100%

The antibiotics are penicillin and my legs are swollen and red spots underneath skin, and also come out in bruising, I had a reaction to the antibiotics. So went back to dentist and I have to go back tomorrow to get another prescription but without penicillin

My husband has cancer I know I will lose him. none understands how scared I am, I sit here and have so much to take in. My Rod has been my carer for years, I am so lost in the world. It easy for others to just say don't be afraid. I suffer with mental illness and ive always been prompted by Rod to do things. like bill paying etc. I wish I could be a better person, I have a slow mind because of my feet issues. I want to be strong but I'm scared. I have my name down to be near my parents but I'm scared I'll be alone. If I could die with Rod I would.Life is so cruel.

Pray, read the Bible, study the word of God, let God help you and guide your life.

I will pray for you and that you don't lose your husband, I will also pray for God to give you the strength to get through this.

You want to be strong but are scared? Here is your chance to grab life by it's throat. Be strong, don't be scared. Trust God, and live as the best person you can be. I pray for you, your husband and that the whole situation gets better.

Thankyou, I'm sat here with a abscess in my top gum, I've been to the dentist and she's done something to make it drain, but it hurts.I have to wait until the 27th may to have to tooth extracted.but who knows everything could go wrong for me like it usually does. I've got my poorly husband in bed and he's not eating well these days, maybe a little snack and that's about it. I've prayed for life to not be so complicated, I feel sorry for my husband because if God's real why all this suffering. But somehow I hang onto my faith. I love being nice to people and a little boy I spoke with today made me smile. That's the real me. I hate being in pain and seeing my husband suffering. Your prayers do mean so much.

Yeesh! John's first bad reaction to penicillin was rash, hives and blisters on his hands. Suddenly that looks calm comparatively! Glad you had time for the dentist.

Wait. I'm now confused, you went to dentist but can't get tooth out for another month? I think that's not translating into Brit-Speak to Yankee-Speak.
